MY GREAT GRANDDAUGHTER HAS EIGHT MORE WEEKS LEFT TO BAKE!
MACKENZIE
Those are ELK STEAKS.
Grandson got them for his birthday gift!
It was more to ship than to buy the steaks themselves.
My best friend from college above and her husband below. Peg & Joe. They got married a month after us.
This is a funny story - she is Swedish and was blonde, and he was Italian and had very dark hair.
At their wedding I will never forget - one side of the church was totally blonde and the other side totally dark brown haired. So unique at the time. They look great, don't they? Married 50 years too.
Time moves on.
Our new favorite pizza place - Primo's in Woodstock
Husband LOVES oatmeal raisin cookies and wants to make them all the time! lol
Did a pretty good job - Betty Crocker Mix.
My SIL is now in a nursing home - she was a little older, but we aged together.
I feel bad, but she has accepted it so well. I hope when my time comes I will.
Time moves on.
My sister's twins had their Quinceanera's. It was a huge party. It is like a coming out party. It was in CA and I wanted to go but could not.
Time moves on.
Funny when you are young you can't wait to get old - when your old you miss your youth.
My son (in aqua) grew up with the man in the black shirt - since elementary school.
They met in Sunday School.
That is their two wife's and three children all grown up.
Time moves on.
We live near the Marietta Square - where a lot of the houses are landmarks from the Civil War.
Very interesting - when we first moved here in 1986 the Civil War was much more prominent.
Now there are so many northerners here - it's almost? - been forgotten.
Time moves on.
This summer my daughter and I went out once a week to have lunch at some place new.
"Gianni and Mac". We had been there before but went back to get a spumoni ice cream.
Have to say we were bad.
We justified it because my daughter had to go back to work yesterday.
Yes, school is starting.
Time moves on.

It is so unfair showing photos of ice cream and not leaving a bit by the monitor for us to taste.
And those cookies too, and the pizza. What a delightful post which made me very hungry too.
It's so nice to spend time with the family and friends. Praying for you all, Sandie. God bless always.
Lovely photos, good food....wonderful.
A Swede and Italian would be different back then. They look wonderful. Wish we had a pizza pace here where I live. Me and my neighbor were talking about that just the other day. Janice
Oh yes Sandie....time moves on doesn't it? I laughed about the story of your friends and how one side was all blonde haired people and the other dark. Made me wonder what color hair their kids have. Oatmeal raisin is my favorite cookie. I could sure eat one this morning with my coffee...lol.
July went by way too fast for me, but any more it goes faster and faster everyday! We need to stop and reflect now and then so we don't loose important memories! It's nice to list them so we don't forget. Nice post today!
July went very fast for me, with two weeks of it "up north". I wouldn't trade those two weeks for anything, though! I enjoyed your post and the photos! That ice cream looks so good!! Have a blessed week ahead!
Time goes by all too quickly, Sandie. Today would have been my mother's 97th birthday. Still miss her, but time passes . . . Blessings, my friend!
Nice post and you have such a beautiful family, Sandie. I keep meaning to bake some oatmeal raisin cookies - they are my husband’s favorite as well. Oh my that chocolate spumoni looks heavenly. Of course I love anything with chocolate.
Yes time just keeps rolling along, with us or without us.
Time really does move on at an alarming rate it seems.
Love all of your photos, especially the BAD ice cream. HaHa .
Have a great week.

What a wonderful assortment of memories, Sandie! My mother's all-time favorite ice cream was spumoni ... not easy to find "back in the day." One of my last happy memories surrounding her time in the nursing home was when she learned spumoni was regularly featured for dessert. How her face lit up!
Happy memories! 😊❤️
The more time goes on, the faster it races! I was asking our granddaughters about a concert they went to recently. They said "Grandma, that was two years ago." I was aghast! Peg & Joe look so good!!
Time moves on so quickly doesn't it ... in a few days it will be August, the eighth month of the year! Goodness!
I enjoyed your photographs, the food looks good :)
All the best Jan
Yes, time does move on. And it moves way to fast.
I received some Elk steaks before, and they tasted a little strange. I guess there's a way to prepare them. That pizza looks delicious, and it's so nice to have a good pizza place to go to. I've been craving pizza lately. The oatmeal raisin cookies look Yummy. My father-in-law used to make a BIG batch from time to time, and they were the best. I really miss them. The Quinceanera looks festive, and the pink dress is pretty. That's interesting that you live close to the area where the Civil war took place. Haven't had Spumoni ice cream in a long time, but I love it. It's tasty, isn't it? Can't believe school is starting for your daughter this week. Always a delight visiting with you, Sandie, and seeing what's happening in your world.
